The relevant code is here:
https://github.com/faiproject/fai/blob/master/examples/simple/scripts/GRUB_PC/10-setup

I assume that everyone starts his FAI config from this example script.

So the solution would be to preseed the boot_device via
debconf-set-selection and dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc afterwards?

Cheers,
